Holo GlitterTips

Sparkly disco balls on your tips? This glitteris so crazy and eye catching I had to show you guys!
~edit so I changed the title & some text cause I realized I was a dummy. This is a straight glitter. Not pigment. *face palm* sorry guys!~

I learned about this technique from Robin Moses. If you haven't checked out her blog or amazing you tube tutorials.... you should. She puts new meaning to the term Nail Art. She is a wonderful artist who hand paints beautiful nails, and she's completely dedicated to teaching and spreading the love. I've learned so much in just watching a few of her video tutorials. Fantastic! Check her out.

So she kept talking about "foil glue" and Inaz pigments in her Shattered Glass video (featured here is Inaz - Glam Rock). So I had to get my hands on it. I found nail art "foil glue" from Dollar Nail Art online store. Transfer Foil Adhesive. Then I scoured the net until I found Inaz. They sell through their facebook page. I am one of the few in staunch opposition to social networking sites, so I contacted Amber from Inaz (I found her email in a search) and asked her if I could buy another way seeing as how I don't have a facebook account. She was quick to get back with me and sent me an invoice and I paid via Paypal. Several days later I get this fantastic glitter. It's straight holographic glitter goodness in a jar. This size container was $6.50 + shipping.

I wanted to play it safe with my first attempt at using both of these products, so I stuck to doing simple french tips. Now that I know how easy it is, I will definitely by attempting some nails like Robin's in the future!

Would you like to see how I did it? I actually remembered to take step by step pictures this time! ;)

And a quicky video in the sunlight. Hehe, you can hear all the noises from the highway I live right by...
